  • Atc Chairman's
    ATC CHAIRMAN’S COMMUNICATION TO MEMBERS JULY 2016 WINX & CHAUTAUQUA RATED WORLD’S BEST AFTER THE CHAMPIONSHIPS There were many great highlights from the Sydney Autumn Carnival, but the performances of two horses further served to highlight the strength of Sydney racing. Winx was rated the world’s best miler and best horse on turf by the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities after The Championships. This followed her unbeaten Autumn campaign in Sydney where Winx took out four of our best races - the Optus Business Apollo Stakes, Precise Air Chipping Norton Stakes, China Horse Club George Ryder Stakes and that amazing victory in The Star Doncaster Mile. At the time of writing Winx remained equal second on the overall World’s Best Racehorse Rankings, and second best miler behind Japan’s A Shin Hikari. We look forward to seeing Winx in Sydney again during the Spring of 2016, where her trainer Chris Waller has already mapped out three races – the Pro-Ride Warwick Stakes at Royal Randwick on 20 August, the Tattersals Chelmsford Stakes at Royal Randwick on 3 September and the Group 1 Colgate Optic White Stakes (George Main) at Royal Randwick on 17 September. Chautauqua – who won his second successive Darley TJ Smith Stakes with an incredible last to first finish – was rated the world’s best sprinter after this win, a ranking he retains at the time of writing. He went on after The Championships to beat a world-class field in the Group 1 Hong Kong Chairman’s Sprint at Sha Tin. Congratulations to Chris Waller and Hugh Bowman for their handling of Winx, and also to Team Hawkes and Tommy Berry for their great work with Chautauqua.
